An early morning crash in Dorchester County that killed one Seaford resident and injured another is under investigation, according to Maryland State Police.

After receiving multiple calls from drivers around 6 a.m. Jan. 8 reporting a crash between a Freightliner and a Nissan Xterra on Route 392 west of Finchville Road in Hurlock, state police said the Easton Barrack dispatched troopers to the scene.

The Nissan Xterra's driver has been identified by police as 50-year-old Yevette Young, who was pronounced dead by emergency medical personnel at the scene. The passenger, 27-year-old Victor Randolph, was taken to Peninsula Regional Medical Center to be treated for injuries.

The Freightliner's driver, 35-year-old Solomon White of Dagsboro, was not injured in the crash, according to police. He was the vehicle's only occupant.

Police said the preliminary investigation indicates White was traveling east on Route 392 and Young was headed west in the same area when — for unknown reasons — White crossed the yellow dotted lane. The Freightliner moved directly into the path of Young's Nissan Xterra, striking its driver side.

The Maryland State Police Crash Team responded to the scene, police said, to conduct a detailed crash reconstruction. The results of the investigation will be forwarded to the Dorchester County State’s Attorney’s Office for review regarding charges.

The Maryland State Police Commercial Vehicle Enforcement Division, Dorchester County EMS personnel and Maryland Department of Transportation State Highway Administration also responded to the scene to aid investigators. Police said the roadway remained closed as of 11 a.m.
